I am floored by the recent news of Trump’s 2020 ‘fake electors’ being charged with state crimes in Arizona. The unredacted list of names involved in this scandal reads like a who’s who of Trump’s inner circle, with Rudy Giuliani, Jenna Ellis, and Sidney Powell among those indicted. These individuals, who were once trusted advisors and legal representatives, are now facing serious charges of conspiracy, fraud, and forgery. It is truly shocking to see such brazen attempts to subvert the will of the people and undermine our democratic processes.
The fact that Trump himself is listed as an unindicted co-conspirator is mind-boggling.… Continue reading
Arizona grand jury indicts 11 Republicans who falsely declared Trump won the state in 2020
The recent news of the Arizona grand jury indicting 11 Republicans who falsely declared Trump won the state in 2020 is a cause for celebration. It is a significant step towards holding those who attempted to subvert the will of the American people accountable for their actions. These individuals thought they could get away with overturning the election results and disenfranchising millions of voters, but justice is finally catching up to them.

As a woman of faith myself, I have often struggled to understand how any person who claims to follow religious values could support someone like Trump. It goes against the very core of what most religions preach – love, compassion, and respect for all.

The fact that these women, primarily from the Maricopa County LDS community, are willing to stand up against Trump despite being lifelong Republicans speaks volumes about their integrity and values.… Continue reading
As I sit here, confronted with the news that the Arizona GOP is advancing a bill that would essentially legalize the killing of undocumented migrants on suspicion of trespassing, my mind reels in disbelief. How have we reached a point where a political party is advocating for such extreme and inhumane measures? The idea that someone could be shot and killed based solely on suspicion is not only barbaric but goes against the most basic principles of justice and humanity.
The fact that this bill is even being considered is a stark reminder of the deeply rooted racism and xenophobia that still permeate through certain segments of society.… Continue reading
Disturbing Bill Would Let Arizona Legislators Ignore Election Results
As an American citizen who values democracy, it deeply concerns me to see the proposed bill in Arizona that would grant legislators the power to ignore election results. This bill, if passed, would give the legislature absolute control over the state’s electoral college votes, effectively disenfranchising millions of citizens. It is a blatant attempt by Republicans to undermine the principles of democracy and establish a White Christian Nationalist fascist state.
First and foremost, it is important to address the misguided notion that Republicans are solely interested in maintaining power and disregarding the will of the people.… Continue reading
